“I’ve been in the healthcare fundraising profession since 1987. I became associated with PRIDE Philanthropy in 1988 and have been a client at two different health systems the entire time. I know of no other fundraising consulting firm that has a better approach to fund development in the small to medium sized shop. In both health systems, my development staff consisted of 3 people. I would estimate that the total dollars raised by both systems during my 35 year career in nearly $100 million. PRIDE teaches staff how to build a volunteer driven fundraising program that is sustainable and if managed properly, will be viable for decades.”
